Maybe it's just me but I can't find the attribute inspector anywhere. I have clicked, searched and tried everything I can think of. I love the new Xcode, but this has me dumbfounded.

Hi all, I’m looking for a way to automate the process of adding Swift Package dependencies (SPM) into an Xcode project. Right now, I’m doing this manually via: Xcode → Project → Swift Packages → Add Package Dependency... But I’d like to script this step — ideally as part of a CI/CD pipeline or a setup script. I explored the xcodeproj Ruby gem, but it doesn’t support adding SPM packages, and there's no official support for editing the .xcodeproj structure related to Swift Packages. So my question is: Is there any Apple-supported or community-supported way to programmatically add Swift Package dependencies to an Xcode project or workspace? Would love to know if anyone has: Used xcodebuild, xcodegen, or other tools for this Explored editing project files directly (like project.pbxproj or Package.resolved) Found any API or CLI hooks from Apple for this Thanks in advance!

I am using a Mac computer running macOS 15.5 with Xcode version 16.3 (16E140) and an iPhone XS Max on iOS 18.5. When debugging my app on the real device using Xcode, the app gets stuck on the launch screen and fails to proceed to the main interface. There is no output in the Xcode console, and the top of the window continuously shows "attaching to [app name] on [iPhone name]". Here are the details: The same issue occurred when the phone was running iOS 18.4.1. When I tested on another real device running iOS 17, the app launched and ran normally. I’ve tried clearing the cache, but it didn’t help. I deleted the ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport folder, let it re-download the necessary files, and ran the app again, but the issue persists. I’m currently out of ideas and would appreciate any assistance.

Hi, I'm encountering an issue with the .symbols files when building iOS and generating ipa file with Xcode 15.4 vs Xcode 16.1. I built my iOS project and generated an ipa file using Xcode 15.4. After I unzipped the ipa, there are around 10 .symbols files in the Symbols folder. One of them is about 20MB and others are under 1MB. However, when I built and generated the ipa with the newer Xcode 16.1, after unzip, there are no .symbols files in the Symbols folder. Could anyone explain why this happened? Is there a new setting or behavior in Xcode 16.1 that affects the generation of .symbols files? I think the .symbols files are needed for analyzing crash reports and symbolication, and I’m unsure why they aren’t present in the build generated with Xcode 16.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

I have two targets: Library and Generate-Library-Modulemap I use a modulemap to help bridge the Objective-C++ code to Swift. Generate-Library-Modulemap is set up to run only when new headers are added (this is done reliably through some trickery). This seems to work, but the problem is that if I add Generate-Library-Modulemap as a dependency of Library, it seems that by the time Library Generate-Library-Modulemap is run, the Library target has already loaded up an outdated modulemap file. The result is my first attempt to build after adding headers is that the framework fails, as even though the modulemap was generated, it was not attached to the framework. The second attempt succeeds as it reads the updated modulemap. Is there any way to force Xcode to run the Generate-Library-Modulemap step before starting on Library? Or perhaps attach the modulemap after the fact?

Hi all, I’m running into a persistent linker error when building my Unity 6 project (IL2CPP, iOS target) that calls a Swift method via an Objective-C++ wrapper. Despite following all known steps, I keep getting: Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: "_placeGeoAnchor", referenced from: _GeoAnchorTrigger_placeGeoAnchor in libGameAssembly.a ... ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64 I’m trying to place a persistent AR anchor at real-world GPS coordinates (so that the same asset can appear at the same location for a returning user). Since I’m targeting iOS, I can’t use Google’s geospatial anchors (but I sooo wish I could--please apple I beg of you stop being so selfish lol). I've already done these things: Swift file is added to Unity-iPhone target. .mm and .h files are in Unity-iPhone target under Compile Sources. Bridging header is set to Unity-iPhone-Bridging-Header.h. Generated header name is correct (GeoTest-Swift.h). Build Active Architecture Only set to No. Function has attribute((visibility("default"))). Unity project uses IL2CPP scripting backend. Yet I'm still getting the same linker error — it appears Unity (via IL2CPP) references the function, but Xcode doesn't link it. It’s something small that’s being missed with how IL2CPP links native symbols? Or maybe I need to explicitly include something in Link Binary With Libraries? I’ve verified symbol visibility and targets repeatedly. I’ve built AR features in Unity before (for Quest), but this is my first time trying to bridge C# → Objective-C++ → Swift in this way for a geolocation-based AR anchor for an iphone. I'm going crazy, I’ve been stuck on this for 12+ hours now, so any insight or nudge would be deeply appreciated. SPECS: Macbook Pro M4 Pro--Sequoia 15.4 Unity 6000.0.45f1 IPhone 11 iOS 18.4 Xcode 15

I am encountering an issue where code coverage data is not showing for my main app in Xcode when running tests for the iOS simulator. However, code coverage is being reported correctly for some modules. Enable Code Coverage Support: YES Xcode 16.2 macOS: 15.3.1 Macbook Pro M1 14-inch, 2021 Despite these configurations, Xcode fails to show code coverage for the main app. Can anyone suggest what might be causing this issue and how to ensure code coverage is correctly reported for the main app during simulator builds?

Hi all, I’m running into a persistent build issue with my Swift project ORSOFINAL after migrating from Xcode stable to Xcode-beta.app 26 (June 2025 version). ⸻ 💥 Errors displayed: 1. C99 was enabled in PCH file but is currently disabled 2. module file .../ModuleCache.noindex/SwiftShims-AXUM98L131W4...pcm cannot be loaded due to a configuration mismatch with the current compilation 3. missing required module 'SwiftShims' ⸻ 🛠 What I’ve already tried: • xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer • Deleted ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData, ModuleCache.noindex, Archives, and Products • Ran sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch • Clean Build Folder in Xcode-beta • Verified Command Line Tools setting points to Xcode-beta ⸻ ❓Looking for guidance on: • Whether this is a known bug in Xcode-beta • If SwiftShims/PCM conflicts are expected between versions • Best practices to safely migrate from Xcode stable to beta for Swift-based projects Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks, Mathéo

The code in my app is split into frameworks that I can use both from my main app and its app extensions. In order to use the frameworks inside the app extension, I need to build them with the Xcode build setting Require Only App-Extension-Safe API set to Yes. When I do that, debugging framework code in my main app no longer works properly. I can set a breakpoint, but any attempt to print a value via p or po will give a set of errors like the following: error: module file /Users/.../Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/...-daqfgouagvlkudfebrmzrurogmld/Build/Intermediates.noindex/SwiftExplicitPrecompiledModules/_errno-B8I5WSZMM09RXHYLYEWSC1BLE.pcm cannot be loaded due to a configuration mismatch with the current compilation error: Objective-C App Extension was enabled in PCH file but is currently disabled How do I fix this?

For Xcode 15 and Xcode 16, whenever I try to use the Refactor->Rename command I get a spinning busy cursor for a short while then I get an alert that says: Rename Failed Refactoring engine failure. This happens on several projects and I've tried removing the derived data folder, but am at a loss to find additional troubleshooting steps. Are there other files I might remove or reset to get my "Refactoring Engine" back into shape?

I am not able to connect my iPad 10th gen (OS - 18.4.1) with Xcode (OS - 16.3). It is give me error "Failed to find a DDI that can be used to enable DDI services on the device. Usually this means the best DDI we could find for a platform did not have compatible CoreDevice content. Run 'devicectl list preferredDDI' from the command line to get more details on why no valid DDI can be found." I also tried uninstalling and installing Xcode but still the same issue. Please suggest the solution.

This is the issues I faced: NSBundle file:///System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MetalTools.framework/ principal class is nil because all fallbacks have failed How can I fix it because I'm not sure if I dowloaded the application correctly.

Hi, I'm currently facing an issue where my React Native app crashes only on a real iPhone. On the simulator and in Xcode preview, the app runs fine. Previously, I had an issue with FlatList regarding props.getItem, which I solved by installing some missing Babel dependencies. After that, everything worked correctly in the simulator. But when I try to open the app on a real device, it shows the splash screen and crashes immediately. I've already done a full clean and reset, including: npx react-native start --reset-cache Deleted node_modules and Pods, reinstalled everything Cleaned build folder via Xcode Deleted DerivedData Restarted Metro bundler and simulator/device The issue only happens on the physical device.

Moreover it is impossible to retrofit any data in the returned placemarks as they are portrayed as a read only property.

Hi All, I'll start by saying i am complete beginner when it comes to coding/ developing. So please be easy on me, im also using AI tools to help and learn so apologies if what im saying doesnt make sense. The error im getting is /Services/SupabaseManager.swift:47:29 Cannot find 'GlobalOptions' in scope From AI tells me 'GlobalOptions' is defined a types.swift file in the supabase package public struct GlobalOptions: Sendable { /// Optional headers for initializing the client, it will be passed down to all sub-clients. public let headers: [String: String] /// A session to use for making requests, defaults to `URLSession.shared`. public let session: URLSession /// The logger to use across all Supabase sub-packages. public let logger: (any SupabaseLogger)? public init( headers: [String: String] = [:], session: URLSession = .shared, logger: (any SupabaseLogger)? = nil ) { self.headers = headers self.session = session self.logger = logger } } From what i can see i have added the supabase package successfully, following this guide - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/adding-package-dependencies-to-your-app Here are some screenshots of my xcode to show the added package.

I am new to Xcode and trying to learn how to use Metal for my internship. I am trying to link the binaries of Foundation.framework, Metal.framework, and Quartcore.framework. But whenever I try to build it always fails to find any of them. I have my Header Search Path as $(PROJECT_DIR)/metal-cpp, I tried adding some for the Frameworks but that did not work either. I do have the binaries linked in the Build Phases, so I don't know what else I could be missing.

On my M4 Mac running macOS 15.5 using Xcode 16.4 & Xcode CLT 16.4, Swift code in my Swift Package Manager 5.9 project (https://github.com/mas-cli/mas) builds fine against some included Objective-C headers via the following command line: swift build -c release But cannot find modules for the included Objective-C headers when building inside Xcode 16.4 or with the following command line on the same Mac: xcodebuild -scheme mas -configuration Release -destination platform=macOS,arch=arm64,variant=macos The error is: Sources/mas/AppStore/AppleAccount.swift:9:16: error: no such module 'StoreFoundation' How can I get Xcode / xcodebuild to work? Note that the project is normally built by running: Scripts/build which runs: swift build -c release after running the following script, which must be run before any build (swift, Xcode, or xcodebuild) because it generates a necessary file (Sources/mas/Package.swift): Scripts/generate_package_swift I've tried moving the Objective-C headers into include subfolders of their existing module folders, using double quotes instead of angle brackets for the #import statements, having module.modulemap files in the include subfolders or their parent module folder, and moving the module folders one level up the file hierarchy, to no avail. I've also tried various changes to the root-level Package.swift (not the generated one deeper in the hierarchy, which isn't inclined in the build configuration), like making separate library targets for each of the Objective-C modules, various swiftSettings & linkerSettings, etc. Maybe some of those changes would have helped, but maybe they were in incorrect combinations. Thanks for any help.
